END OF THIS TIMETABLE

MOST OF THE BUSES ON THESE ROUTES DO NOT RUN AT WEEKENDS OR
ON HOLIDAYS
CHECK CAREFULLY FOR THE DAYS ON WHICH BUSES RUN.
THIS TIMETABLE APPLIES ALL YEAR ROUND; THERE ARE NO EXTRA BUSES IN
SUMMER.

"Interurban" Buses in the Algarve do NOT have
route/line numbers as they do in most of Europe.
Check bus type at
the head of the column - shown here for your guidance.
TR - Faro - Lagos TRANSRAPIDO bus. Stops only at the places
shown in the timetable plus some
other locations in the city of Faro

TICKETS - IF BOARDING AT A BUS TERMINAL YOU MUST
BUY YOUR TICKET AT THE TICKET WINDOW BEFORE GETTING ON THE BUS.
ALLOW A FEW MINUTES FOR THIS ESPECIALLY AT FARO. OTHERWISE BUY
YOUR TICKET FROM THE DRIVER AS USUAL

CONNECTIONS - the timetables for
the TR and AL buses in particular are somewhat optimistic! Expect
delays of 10 - 15 minutes at ANY time towards the middle/end
of the journey. In my experience, I would not trust any connection
of less than 15 minutes. Buses usually DO NOT WAIT for another
late running service.
